Partner With Crown Roots Foundation

Align your resources with a mission that expands the world for Pocono Mountain youth — through basketball, academics, and mentorship.

49%
of Mountain students are economically disadvantaged — and still expected to pay $1,500–$5,000/year for competitive development that the Valley takes for granted.
$0 → Degree
Our model: from zero expected family contribution to college graduate. Academic scholarships changed their family’s trajectory. We’re making that the rule, not the exception.

Partnership Opportunities

Three ways to align with our mission. Every partnership directly funds program access, information equity, and mentorship for Mountain youth who have no other pathway.

Community Partner

Schools, community centers, churches, and educators: host Crown Hub programming in your space. We work with the people who are already invested in youth success — giving them a structured program and shared resources to make it happen year-round.

Corporate Partner

What Your Partnership Funds

Program Access

League fees, equipment, and campus visit travel — removed as barriers so every student can participate regardless of family income. We fund access so kids can focus on the work.

College Access Information

The No-Loan College Database, college guidance sessions, and funded campus visits where students meet directly with academic departments — not just tour guides. We show them where they’ll actually spend their time.

Mentorship Infrastructure

Streamlining coaching resources, admin best practices, and success pathways so organizations can focus on the kids. Coaches clinics, shared support, and spotlights of success across the mountain community.
